  1. When I select all my operations and post my program in mastercam 18 it only posts 1 tool path at a time I don’t know what’s wrong I’m sure it’s something simple . Any help ? Thanks
  2. I am Trying to create a custom tool , it’s a double angle chamfer tool and I keep getting this message . Problem with custom geometry file or data . Check for gaps , overlaps , or blanked / hidden entities . I’ve done everything it says and I just can’t get it to work . Any advise helps . Thanks .
  3. YUP , I FOUND OUT TODAY THAT OUR MACHINE DOES NOT SUPPORT DYNAMIC FIXTURE OFFSETS ... SUCKS!
  4. Do you know if this is activated using a m code? or is it a setting in the machine paramaters ? thanks for the reply .
  5. hey guys i was wondering if i could get a little help . i am using a brother S1000 its a 3+2 and i have been programming it from center line of rotation but i recently saw a haas video on youtube showing you how to use dynamic work offsets using g54.1 i have been looking around online to see if that works with fanuc controls or if its only a haas thing. the video seemed pretty cool and im newer to programming 5 axis and i wanted to know if anyone knew if this worked with my control and or machine . thanks!
  6. I went with a laptop because I program at work and home for other shops . I agree a desktop would be the way to go . The laptop was $3,600 .
  7. I kept hearing that Nvidia quadro was the the way to go and I’m sure it works good but it’s very pricey . I ended up going with a AMD Radeon 7130WX 8gb for my graphics card , windows 10 pro 64bit , 32 gb of RAM , Intel Xeon 8 core processor 3.2 ghz with a turbo boost 5ghz . I put all this in a Dell 7740 precision laptop . It works very well with mastercam and solid works . I hope this was helpful to anyone trying to figure out what to buy . You can put your own laptop together on www.dell.com .
  8. I wanted to start a topic on computer specs and people’s set ups that run mastercam and how they work for them . I had a lot of questions when I was building my laptop and I’m sure a lot of people do .
  9. There it is . Hahaha I knew it was right in front of my face . Thank you very much . I’ve been looking for that for a while .
  10. Hi I’m trying to learn Mastercam 2018 and I am trying optirough and I don’t see where stock to leave is . I’m sure it’s in there I just don’t see it Any help would be highly appreciated . Thanks .
  11. I just got a dell precision 7740 32gb of ram, with a radeon pro wx 8gb , intel xeon . it works great . you can build one on dell.com
  12. I need a post for our makino , if anyone had one it would be highly appreciated .

  14. Hi did you ever find out what the problem was with mastercam not running unless there was an internet connection? im having the same issue.
  15. I’ve been having the same exact problem with mastercam . It runs for a few minuets and then freezes . Has anyone found the solution? So far I’ve tried to turn off automatic updates and feedback . Neither have worked . Thanks .
